Why You Need a Work Accident Attorney

Directly after receiving a terrible injury or undergoing an accident at your workplace, you will be reeling physically, emotionally, and mentally. You will be forced to try to cope with floods of unanswered questions such as how long you will be forced to be out of work, how you will be able to pay back tremendous piles of medical debts, and how you will be able to provide income for your family.

In the midst of this chaos, you might be tempted to avoid contacting an attorney, so you have one less thing to worry about. In reality, a qualified, experienced work accident attorney is exactly who you need at your side.

Just a few things that a skilled lawyer can do for you include:

  • Defending your workers’ rights as protected by government, state, and city laws
  • Helping you receive maximum compensation that you deserve for your pain and suffering, in addition to the sheer loss of your income and salary and the mounting bills
  • Bringing the perpetrator to justice for negligence, malpractice, ignorance, or even direct malice
  • Filing all of the claims to your employer for your compensation
  • Collecting evidence of malpractice and negligence
  • Collecting evidence of the mental, physical, and emotional suffering you have undergone
  • Collecting evidence of the insurmountable financial pressures you have been forced to face

While the idea of correctly filling out all the paperwork and claims can seem like an arduous and complex task, you do not need to be anxious so long as you have our highly knowledgeable lawyer at your side. Let attorney Julio E. Portilla handle all of the phone calls with insurance companies that will deceitfully try to get out of paying you what you are owed.
